Pours crystal clear gold with nearly no head. Huge amounts of diacetyl and some DMS. Even worse is some butyric acid. Taste is of buttered popcorn and minerals. Little in the way of malt backing and only a faint bitterness that lingers into the finish.

4.6% ABV 330 ml brown bottle purchased in Wanaka and consumed a day later in Queensland NZ. BB date of ? 2014.
Pours clear amber with a smallish, bubbly, short-lived, off-white head. Some lacing.
Aroma: Floral hops, sweet malts, and a trace of vanilla.
Flavor: Very good balance even though it is sweeter than, say, a typical Czech pilsner. The hops do dominate eventually in the mildly bitter aftertaste.
Feel: medium-light body; lightly crips and smooth; good, medium carbonation.
O: a good pilsner with a sweet caramel malt twist.

A most foul aroma of popcorn, yogurt, creamed corn / DMS and butter / diacetyl... pretty much no hop or malt presence to be found. Medium-light body, medium bitterness, dry, husky and silty texture. Mild acid on the palate confirms diacetyl and a sour graininess grows as it opens. Pretty awful stuff and not worth more than a few minutes with. From bottle.

UPDATED: NOV 20, 2013 A very nice brewery with two great guys running this plant. Owned by a belgian/Swiss couple. They produce for local market. Though, at the time visiting they only had the 3 populair ones and not the great ones as it was waiting to be bottled. The Beers i tasted where just ok, nothing special. Keep up the good works guys!
